Laughter Is The Best Medicine…

Well, looks like Mom found something to cheer me up so I wouldn’t be thinking so much about the fact that it was -36C out last night at work, and even when I left work, it was still -34C (note: This is with wind-chill), and it’s not due to be that much better tonight. Looking forward to tomorrow, which at the moment is due to have a high of 2C.

I was trying to read this out loud to Mitzy and Aspen, and got to #13 before I couldn’t continue for laughing so hard…

Wrapping Presents With A Cat

1. Clear large space on table for wrapping present.

2. Go to wardrobe and collect bag in which present is contained, and close door.

Luckily, most of my wrapping consisted of surrounding the presents in tissue paper and sticking them in the gift bags, but there were a few (and still is one more to be done) that had to be wrapped… and Mitzy does not appreciate having anything other than herself on my lap. Though as long as she can actually curl up under my sweater or polar fleece shawl she reluctantly accepts the laptop… but wrapping paper – uh uh! Had to constantly shove her off my lap yesterday morning while I was doing the wrapping. (Most of them were distributed at the extended/adopted family Christmas Brunch yesterday morning, since it’s only my aunt and I who are actually here in town for Christmas itself.)

Anyway, hope things (including any decorating you have left to do) are going well for you today. Enjoying the time off, may I assume? *g*

And yours don’t attack the tissue paper? Mine love the stuff. Granted- they love any paper, but tissue is a fave. That’s one way that I can usually distract them after they manage to get the door open. Mine are too smart for their own good. Even the dog knows to go get Hal to open the door for him.

Oh, I am enjoying the time off. I actually got to sleep in for a change! Decorating is finished! *throws confetti in the air* Are you enjoying having an empty school?

They might be attracted by tissue paper – I’m not sure, I just remember constantly shoving Mitzy off my lap. *g*

Sleeping in is good! And yes, having an empty school is definitely pleasant. And by tomorrow night, even the boarding school dons (basically the adults assigned to supervising and taking care of the boarders, all of whom are provided with apartments up in the boarding school) will be gone as well, so it will be a truly empty school!
